4/7/2011 5:42:49 PM

ITHACA, N.Y. – Coming off an impressive win over No. 6 Yale last weekend, the No. 13 Cornell women's rowing team will face an even greater test this weekend, as it vies for the Class of '75 Cup against No. 18 Radcliffe and No. 1 Princeton on Saturday, April 12, on the Charles River. Racing will begin at 7 a.m., with the varsity-8 race slated to begin at 9:24 a.m.

THE CLASS OF '75 CUP: The Class of '75 Cup was donated by five graduates of Princeton's class of 1975 and is given to the winner of the first varsity-8 race between Cornell, Princeton and Radcliffe.

THE SERIES VS. PRINCETON/RADCLIFFE: The Big Red has won the Class of '75 Cup just once, earning the victory during the 1983 season. Princeton holds the all-time advantage with 20 victories, while Radcliffe has won the Cup 13 times. The Tigers are currently riding a three-race winning streak, while the Big Red is coming off a second-place finish a year ago, its best finish in the race since 1996.
